TOSHIBA CMOS DIGITAL INTEGRATED CIRCUIT SILICON MONOLITHIC
TCM8230MD (A)
TENTATIVE
VGA CAMERA MODULE
The TCM8230MD(A) is a camera module which includes area color image sensor embedded with camera signal
processor that meets with VGA format. In the sensor area 492 vertical and 660 horizontal signal pixels, and the image
size meets with 1/6 inch optical Format. Use of the CMOS process enables low power consumption operations. It
also provides excellent color reproduction through its primary color filter, and embedded camera signal processor
enables small and simple camera system. And this module can be assembled by the socket which is suitable for the
reflow soldering. So it is fit to use as an image input device for digital still cameras, PC cameras and mobile devices.
